-—What did you blow up?
A piece of my desk...
I let it dry out on filter paper
Mom was mad because small fragments of NI3
were scattered into the rug,
making walking in the room exciting and
leaving small purple spots all over the place
Yes, we were a challenge to raise
We did the same thing in the chemistry lab in HS after school... (because kids used to do that sort of thing before Facebook).
We had the stuff all over the floor by the end of the session.
Chemistry teacher said the best thing was taking the still wet solution and soaking it into cotton balls, then leaving the wet cotton balls in open door jams to dry.
